Why He's On The List: WALL-E is probably the cutest character on this list, making Short Circuit's Johnny Five (not present but we liked the analogy) look like a Terminator and E.T. like Jabba The Hutt. The adorable little bolt bucket never, ever, gives up hope, and winds up saving both the planet and the human race for his trouble. But it's the revealing of his personality through his undying fascination with human junk that really wins you over.
